This technology is currently used in a commercial 75# drying system and dries laundry in industry standard times, while requiring no venting and producing less lint. The AdvanceDry75, using this patented heat pump technology, provides warm, dry air to the drying drum by taking the exhaust air, dehumidifying it and reheating it. Using standard components, including a PLC, coil pack, heat plates, and a compressor, this system is adaptable to many sizes and configurations. This proposal is to adapt this technology into a system that will operate aboard a ship in a modular configuration. Benefits: Reduces Energy Consumption by up to 90% Required no venting and ductwork - Zero emmissions Extends textile life Demands no Make-up air Intrinsically Safe - No Open flame and operated at a lower temperature that conventional dryers Return
